You need a referral from a primary care centre or a clinic at Akademiska sjukhuset. This is a necessary step to ensure that you receive the right care and treatment.
If a healthcare professional assesses that you should be referred to us, you will receive an appointment notification once we have received your referral. You may also seek care with us by submitting a self-referral.

Submit a self-referral via 1177.se

Wait for your appointment notification

Once your healthcare provider has sent us an approved referral, or after you have submitted a self-referral, you will receive an appointment notification to attend the department. Waiting times for appointment notifications can vary. Under the healthcare guarantee, you are guaranteed care within 90 days.
